FYI: Jaffa has always been a very violent place. It's just that in the past the violence was mostly directed against Jews who lived there (so you didn't get to read about it in the newspapers). I for one am glad I don't live there anymore. And BTW, I'd rather live on the moon than go back and live in Jaffa...

the reacism is directed against Arabs, not Jews.

Cocktail at the Synagogue? any Arab or Jew.

He is always ready to condemn Jews before they are proven guilty, however he keeps silent when arabs attack Jews. Is he the president just of the arabs?

Could be a splinter terrorist cell trying to cause hatred within israeli societies. I would think 10 times before blaming settlers on these acts....

Will Peres condemn this too?

They don't know when the vandalism took place but it wasn't discovered until now--that means it took place on Shabbat--on Yom Kippur--on the day when Jews were in synagogue. I am sure that these incidents were done by lefties and/or Arabs to encourage the exact type of response that has been happening. I also laugh at the Balad MK calling Lieberman a racist. I guess when Balad incites that is acceptable!

leiberman did not incite this action. You have your positions, he has his. israel is an open society. But history is important. This land was israeli and jewish and the facts prove it. Arabs took it over in the 7th centure for some time but you know very well there was no palestine. The deed belongs to israel and no one else and that also includes a good chunk of jordan as stated at the san remo conference which is binding on the united nations. If you don't bother jews, then you have nothing to worrry about. On the other, arabs are distantly related, israel is agood mix, a great country where you, tibi, and zoabi give us hell and occasionally slap us and where we enjoy your food and music and you. its time to start defending this beautiful country and not the garbage dumps of your neighbours where the government shoots at the people. And I am certain that a good chunk of the arab citizenry is content. The other part, if they cannot take it,then should move to the neighbouring states. Don't mess with the jews.

One of the most violent US cities. You still have a curfew?

You reap what you sow.

for TREASON!

were silent when ALL of the synagogues were were burned to the ground when Gaza fell into their laps. Muslims were silent when their 'hero', Katub, bombed the ancient synagogues in Jerusalem. muslims were silent when the ancient stones which read "Holy of Holies" were dismantled and taken to Turkey from where the AlAqsa Mosque now stands. Muslims were silent when their co-religionists entered the synagogue in Turkey in the 1980's and murdered many Jews. Muslims were silent when their co-religionist murdered many Jews in the synagogue in Argentina. Muslims were silent when their co-religionist murdered the Chabad Rabbi and his wife and other innocents in India a few years ago. Muslims were NOT silent when their co-religionist destroyed thousands of American lives when they blew up the World Trade Center towers. In fact, the Muslims all over the world gloated! Gleeful, the Muslims danced in the streets and passed out cakes and candies in celebration of those deaths! Islam is a political agenda with a pseudo-religious veneer! Islam is a 3rd. column in America which must be up-rooted and disposed of!

President Shimon Peres condemned the vandalism acts at Jaffa’s Christian and Muslim cemeteries, referring to them as “despicable acts that disgrace us and contradict the moral values of Israeli society.” I hope he and some Muslim leader say the same here. Its getting out of hand.

that these people are blaming the govt and Lieberman? as if they had anything to do with this. It is so obvious this was a political set up against the govt...and had nothing to do with settlers or jews or right wingers...it's the left who did this. and probably the same group who commandeered the protests. makes me really angry. Additionally, no relig or rightwing jew would do this on yom kippur, would not target christian anything, and jaffa is a long way from the shomron and settlers aren't going to travel there..on yom kippur.

I believe the reason settlers were blamed so quickly was first out of mental laziness. Leftists and Arabs just believe that they, and not the Arabs violence and racism of 91 years, is the cause for us losing the utopian peaceful coexistence here on Earth. The other reason is because Leftists and Arabs just have no idea what Yom Kippur is all about. A crime like this would never happen on the most holiest day in Judaism and the religious are quite busy with other things today. The Leftists have no idea that even writing is not allowed today, and Arabs are used to their holiest days being used to perpetrate violence. Even Ramadan is considered a great time to launch jihad acts as they count double towards heaven.

Does anybody really care or take any notice of what he says.

Hardly surprising is it ? The radical violent settlers are to blaim for this.

Violent palestinian flag vs Israel

One thing is certain, on the Moon you will be free of arab terror. And living up there you could always throw a brick or two down... tit tat is fair play!

Why is this clown Peres interfering when he should be out in Pasture?

If you ask me I believe that these attacks on the cemetery and the Mosque were done by Arabs so that Israel would get the blame, it’s just not a Jewish thing to do and we know that if we do such a thing the Arabs would retaliate, which they done as they are afraid that the table are turning on them that the world are seeing what they are really like, people who don’t want peace just the destruction of Israel.

kind of extreme isn't he?
